+- update to 0.9.8:
+  * Fixed error reporting in some cases due to how parsing was handling
+    nested rules in the grammar - previously the reported location for
+    the error could be far away from the point where it actually happened.
+  * Fixed behavior of `default` fn in `dump` and `dumps`. Previously
+    we didn't require the function to return a string, and so we could
+    end up returning something that wasn't actually valid. This change
+    now matches the behavior in the `json` module.
